more than 6 authors in the bibliography

bgoezde

hey, i have a study with 9 authors. in the bibliography it shows a total of 7 authors, two are missing (instead there are dots)

"Jones, H. E., Johnson, R. E., Jasinski, D. R., O’Grady, K. E., Chisholm, C. A., Choo, R. E., … Milio, L. (2005)"

but i have to put all names to the bibliography,
how can i change that?

thanks a lot!!

It depends on the citation style. APA style leaves out authors like this. There are many styles that list all authors. A small sample of those are here https://www.zotero.org/styles?q=no "et al."&dependent=0

i have to use APA! is there any possibility to change specifically that?

adamsmith

And you're positive you have to use all authors? APA is very explicit about these rules, so when you're listing 8+ authors, you are no longer using APA.

That's possible, but you have to edit the style:

i am submitting to:

Jones, H. E., Johnson, R. E., Jasinski, D. R., O’Grady, K. E., Chisholm, C. A., Choo, R., Crocetti, M., Dudas, R., Harrow, C., Huestis, M.A., Jansson, L.M., Lantz, M., Lester, B.M., Milio, L. (2005). Buprenorphine versus methadone in the treatment of pregnant opioid-dependent patients: effects on the neonatal abstinence syndrome. Drug and Alcohol Dependence, 79(1), 1–10.

The question is what journal you're submitting to (or what you need this style for), not the citation in question.
